[Verse 1]
If I was a raindrop
Would you be my thunderstorm?
It's cold so surround me
With rain clouds to keep me warm
I feel like I'm falling
So darling don't let me go
The thought is appalling but should I slip away
Into the stormy sea will you remember me?
[Verse 2]
Asleep in our warm cocoons
We dream of lovely things
We're both gonna wake up soon
So we hope that tomorrow brings
Us our butterfly wings
[Verse 3]
If I was a grain of sand
Would you be Miami Beach?
So dusty with starlight
Close your eyes and cuddle close to me
I'll try not to wake you
Or make a sound while you're dozing off
But in the night should the high tides
Sweep me away from you
Tell me again my dear will you be waiting here?
[Verse 4]
Whenever we leave the ground
And take to the sky
I'll smile as I'm gazing down
Because I've always wondered why
We won't need feathers to fly
